Despite the rumors linking her boyfriend Derek Ramsay to Jinkee Pacquiao, Angelica Panganiban insisted that she doesn’t have any worries about their relationship right now. Angelica knew all about Derek’s trip to General Santos City for a mall show and that he went out with Jinkee afterwards. “Natawa lang ako sa mga tsismis. Hindi ako kasama dun pero ang alam ko nga lumabas sila, yung group ng mga producers na nag-ano. Wala, ganon lang. Ang dami nga niyang pasalubong sa akin, puro fish.” The actress didn’t even take the issue seriously, replying in the manner of her character in Rubi that no one can steal Derek away from a real beauty like her. “Kung gusto niya (Jinkee) siya, try nga niya e. Try niyong kalabanan si Rubi (pertaining to herself), mamumula din ang lips niyo,” Angelica said, living up to her bida-kontrabida character with the way she boldly deals with gossip.
Angelica was also not affected by the news that Derek and Jinkee who still keep in touch through text messages have since become good friends. “Masama ba makipag-text? Hindi naman, normal naman yun, magkakaroon ka ng kaibigan. Hindi naman porket naging ‘kami’ hindi ka na ulit pwedeng makipagkaibigan sa iba. So ako bawal na rin ako makipagkaibigan? Hello, ang dami ko rin kayang ka-text.” It’s no big deal to her that Derek has female friends in the same way that he lets her be friends with heartthrobs like Zanjoe Marudo and her other male colleagues. “Ang suwerte ko na nga dahil hindi siya seloso. Siguro kung seloso siya paano na lang ako magtatrabaho? Baka kami ni Kim Chiu ang magtagisan sa pagiging sweet ang image, hindi ko kaya,” she exclaimed with a laugh.
Though there are times that she still gets jealous of women who are close to Derek, Angelica shared that she and Derek have learned to compromise when it comes to their shortcomings. “Kung yung culture niya ganon, friendly siya sa mga tao, hindi ko yun pwedeng alisin sa kanya. So kailangan niya lang bawasan ng konti [yung pagiging friendly], tapos babawasan ko din ng konti yung pagiging selosa ko. Pagdating naman ng panahon magkakaintindihan din kayo kasi ang ganda ng takbo ng relationship niyo dahil sa kompromisong ginawa niyo.” And there hasn’t been an instance that she had to confront a girl who got too close to him for comfort. “Wala, hindi naman siya matindi. Nai-insecure lang ako kasi hindi naman ako perpekto ‘di ba? Hindi naman mawawala yun e. May kanya-kanya tayong insecurities bilang babae. ‘Bakit, mas maganda ba siya?’ Yung mga ganon lang.”
In the meantime, Angelica revealed that she and Derek are doing an outreach activity on Valentine’s Day instead of their original plan to go to Batanes for a weekend getaway. “Sinimulan namin yung ganitong tradition last year. Kasi yung mga tao nagbibigay lang sa charity ‘pag birthday or Pasko. Pero yung Valentine's masyado nilang nakakalimutan. Porke’t may boyfriend ka dun mo binibigay yung atensyon mo. So gusto naman naming ibuhos yung atensyon namin sa mga taong walang kasama sa araw ng mga puso. Magpapakain kami, tapos magpapa-games, tsaka kantahan somewhere in Alabang,” she excitedly stated.
Are she and Derek going to give each other gifts like usual? “Wala na. Ayoko na magbigay ng gift. Hindi naman ako nanghihingi ng gift dahil ang hirap tapatan. Nalulula ako,” she replied.
